I have not found any recent threads (seen one made in 2013 though, I wasn’t sure if I should necro it) featuring ideas from the community on new professions. Since we had a bunch of new items implemented since then, I decided to start up a thread with some of my profession ideas.
[IT Specialist]
Inventory: dress shirt, boxers/panties, pants, socks, dress shoes, PDA.
Skills: Computers 2, Electronics 2, Speech 2 (and/or barter?).
Description: It was just another day at the office, until one of your clients suddenly began screaming over the phone. At first you thought it was just another belligerent customer, until your coworkers began having the same sudden interruptions. Soon after, all hell broke loose and you found yourself to be one of the few surviving specialist to have made it out of the office alive!
Note: We could use a few more professions from an office.
[Fisherman]
Inventory: pocket knife, baseball cap (or) boonie hat, t-shirt, utility vest, jeans, fishing waders, basic fishing rod, plastic fish trap, fish bait - bread/meat/veggy.
Skill(s): Survival 2, Swimming 2.
Description: What you thought was just the stench of a bad catch, turned out to be much more worse than that. Fighting off what appeared to be living bloated corpse, you manage to make your way to dry land. Unfortunately, a good portion of your best gear was lost. Not to mention your damned canoe!
Note: Might be interesting to see the new fishing traps put into use more early in the game.
[Basketball Player]
Inventory: sports jersey, shorts, sneakers (and a basketball, but that would need to be included later I guess).
Skill(s): Dodge 2, Throwing 3.
Description: It was going to be your first major game, but then the cataclysm struck. Creatures unlike anything you’ve seen before, began attacking the attending crowd and only a handful of people managed to escape the carnage. Thanks to your quick feet, you were among the lucky few to survive and escape from the creatures.
Note: We really need some basketballs! 
There might be a few more that I could think of, but for now, I want to see what professions other folks have in mind. I’m also not sure how many character points to assign to each profession, so I could also use some help there too.
